| Hi Tony,
I'm a comeback player and to jump on the bandwagon about duets I think it's great. I'm taking private lessons and my teacher is also a composer. My teacher is writting a book of duets, so....during my last lesson I was having problems with a particular rhythm. He wrote a duet during my lesson (sounds bad - what about the lesson etc, etc but wasn't really) and we played it together while he wrote it out. It was amazing. By the time I got done with playing the duet a couple of times, we went back to the piece I was having trouble on and voila! It worked itself out. He said he was thinking of doing a lot more playing together with his students. I think it's great.
